Coolpad Group recently introduced the Coolpad Note 5 to the Indian market. The timing of the launch seemed rather interesting as the Flipkart Big Billion Days were also here. However, the Coolpad Note 5 was not part of the big sale but there were a ton of other products that were up for grabs. We hope you made the best use of these festive seasons offers. There are more offers on iSpyPrice if you would like to check out.

Let’s take a closer look at the specifications on the Coolpad Note 5.

Specifications – Coolpad Note 5

Coolpad Note 5 comes with a 5.5 inch IPS display that has a screen resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels and a pixel density of 401 ppi. The phone’s display is a 2.5D curved glass display that is now becoming all too common. The Note 5 comes with a 1.5 GHz Octa Core Qualcomm Snapdragon 617 processor with an Adreno 405 GPU.

This is a pretty powerful phone in its own right as other than the impressive processing power it also boasts of a 4 GB RAM. These impressive specifications ensure that the Note 5 is among the best smartphones you can get under the Coolpad umbrella.

The internal storage capacity in the Coolpad Note 5 is 32 GB and can be expanded up to 64 GB using a microSD card slot. The primary camera on the Note 5 is a 13 megapixel unit with dual LED flash and 1080 pixel video recording. The camera also boasts of auto focus, f/2.2 aperture, CMOS sensor, and 5P lens. The front camera is an 8 megapixel unit with f/2.2 aperture, LED flash, and 5P lens.

The Note 5 is a dual SIM (LTE + LTE) 4G smartphone with support for VoLTE. The dimensions of this phone are 152 x 75.7 x 8.85 mm and it weighs 173.4 grams. Another really impressive thing about the Coolpad Note 5 is its battery. The Note 5 has a 4010 mAh battery which is pretty impressive for any smartphone let alone one that falls in the budget phone category.

The battery capacity will certainly set the Note 5 apart from its competitors and will give it a distinct advantage in the Indian market where the consumer is obsessed with great battery life. The Note 5 is expected to last 14 hours on talktime and 350 hours on standby time.

It’s amazing how many features Coolpad has managed to integrate in the Note 5 at such a reasonable price. One such feature is the fingerprint sensor.

The Note 5 is powered by Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS.

Are we seeing a strategic shift in Coolpad’s approach thanks to LeEco’s leadership?

Earlier this year Coolpad Group decided to enter into a significant relationship with another Chinese juggernaut LeEco. LeEco has become the largest shareholder of Coolpad Group and LeEco’s Founder and CEO Jia Yueting became the Chairman of the Board and Nominating Committee of Coolpad. This means that LeEco now has a say in how Coolpad operates. For the record – LeEco is now a 28.9% shareholder of Coolpad.

The two brands have worked together create their first collaborative product, the LeEco Cool1 Dual. Perhaps, the one important question that Coolpad loyalists have on their minds right now is whether or not LeEco’s influence is beginning to show in the way Coolpad operates. In other words, a strategic shift in Coolpad’s approach seems plausible.

Coolpad has certainly produced some good phones in the past and they usually produce budget phones that appeal in style and simplicity to the masses. But now for the first time Coolpad is offering a product like the Coolpad Note 5, which is a seriously good phone for its price segment. This is something that is commonly observed in LeEco products. LeEco makes some of the jazziest smartphones and other cool consumer electronics products in the market today. The one thing LeEco prides itself on is that it gets the pricing of its products right.

This is clear with the LeEco Super3 TV series and every other product that LeEco has launched recently. Coolpad Note 5 seems to be following the same philosophy. This is one smartphone that could be considered a ‘best buy’ if it remains in the same price segment as advertised.
